A brilliant piece of kit - I haves used it to provide a central heating boost facility in a village hall to provide hirers with a facility to switch heating on for up to 4 hours and not have the worry of leaving it switched on after the hire has ended which might be the case with other programmers or switches.

1 to 4 hours is a good range of hours. Just right for a towel rail. I've compared with Horstmann but Horstmann only make an up to 2 hour and now a 2,4,6 hour timer which is significantly more expensive than this item. The things I don't like about the TGBT5 are the unnecessary and over bright illumination of the Boost switch and that all indications are on when 4 hours is selected unlike the one at a time indication of the Horstmann. There is leakage from the lit to the unlit windows when viewed in low light. The switch is unpleasantly "clicky". Apart from that does the heated towel rail job well and would also do water heater control well. Or many other tasks. For tasks that require 3 hours this may be the best option. For 2 or 4 hours my recommendation is to consider the new Horstmann 246 I've "improved" mine by applying tape to the boost switch to dull the over bright lighting. First gaffer tape then 19mm wide label. I was even able to print "boost" on the tape. Nearly perfect.Read full review

If you forget to turn things off, these are a great way of saving a fortune - and our planet! We have several in our holiday apartment, they are made of sturdy, wipe clean plastic, look neat and smart and are a great help, preventing holiday makers from leaving electrical items on all day or night which could be dangerous. Some have been working for several years without any kind of breakdown or fault. I would definitely recommend them for use in all sorts of situations.

Purchased to control electric towel rail. During the summer months when central heating not operational towels become damp. Switching on additional heating element solves problem , but requires switching off,which is often forgotten. Countdown timer saves problem and can control the on period for up to 4 hours (2 usually sufficient) Product is well made and reasonably straightforward to fit. However; tight fit in 25mm box. Had to remove redundant fixing lugs to fully obtain flush fitting, plus longer fixing screws, which are not supplied. Be prepared to struggle, .
